I don't think I'll ever get used to seeing my name in sports webpages. Yao Ming, a 7'6" tall chinese dude is joining the NBA this year. I guess his name is really Ming Yao, meaning he has the same last name as I do. So every time there's an article about him, they refer to him as Yao, and that catches my eye every time.

Finally a Yao making it to the big leagues. And he's no ordinary player. There are a couple of chinese players in sports, but this Yao Ming guy is supposed to be better than Shaq -- and that's saying a lot.. who is taller than Shaq, and has more raw talent, can shoot free throws, and can shoot 3's. Even if he isn't as good as Shaq, he'll be better than Nowitzki -- that's amazing!
